Battle Company is a raw, intense and visceral insight into the realities of modern warfare. Following a US Company entrenched deep in the Korengal Valley in north-eastern Afghanistan, it picks up where Oscar nominated Restrepo, left off.

Following the same men, in the same positions, with the same commanders, it takes a very different look at the experience of war, how it works and what it feels like for the young men who fight it.

As one cheers when they hit an enemy fighter, another looks into the camera and asks if God will ever forgive them for all the killing. As one grieves for the loss of his friend in combat, another explains why he missed the war after his deployment ended and why he would go back in a heartbeat if he could.

From Sebastien Junger, co-director of Restrepo and director of the acclaimed Tim Hetherington documentary, Which Way Is The Frontline From Here.
